OSU Football: Kickoff Time, TV Details for Texas Game Land in Six-Day Window

The Big 12 Conference confirmed Monday that OSU’s Week 8 tilt against Texas will take place on Oct. 21. But television details and a time-slot are still yet to be sorted out as OSU’s game has fallen into a six-day selection window.

This means we won’t find out the channel/times for OSU-Texas, Kansas-TCU or OU-K-State until next week.

#BIG12FB Fans:

The TV Selection schedule for Oct. 21 has two games confirmed. The other three will be announced at a later date.

The reason for the holdup? A Texas win this weekend would make OSU-Texas the potential game of the week in the Big 12.

Assuming OSU wins this weekend, and if the Longhorns can upset OU in the Red River battle this weekend, there’s a good chance that Oct. 21 game in Austin could land in a primetime slot.

If the Horns fall, however, it will drastically wipe any varnish off that game — which, surprisingly, looks like it could have Big 12 title implications for both teams as we preview the game two weeks out.
